Moon Executive Search appointed by Lilian Faithfull Care for the recruitment of a new Chair.

An opportunity to join the Board of Lilian Faithfull Care has become available. Lilian Faithfull Care is a charity and they are in care for the right reasons, not for profit, and through their ‘Home for Life’ pledge, they will never ask a resident to leave their homes for financial reasons. The charity was established in 1946 by Lilian Faithfull and has remained true to the founding principles of the charity; “a desire to improve the lives of others through care and dedication.”

In addition to being conversant with statutory obligations, the Chair of Trustees is pivotal both in terms of offering leadership and support to the Board of Trustees and the CEO.

The Board of Trustees is keen to hear from people especially with:

Experience from a similar role in a not-for-profit organisation as a Chair or Trustee.
Strong business and financial acumen.
An understanding of the difference between governance (the responsibility of the Chair) and executive management (the responsibility of the CEO).

The Chair will ideally be based within comfortable travelling distances of the Cheltenham area.

Moon Executive Search is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all areas of society. Lilian Faithfull Care wants to represent the breadth and diversity of the UK and particularly welcomes expressions of interest from people from a diverse range of professional and personal backgrounds.

Lilian Faithfull provides a range of care including day care, respite care, residential care and nursing care. The Charity supports people with a wide range of conditions and has specialist knowledge of dementia care and end of life care. Some of the homes also offer care for couples.

The Charity’s vision is to aspire to use its resources to enhance the quality of life of older people in ‘necessitous circumstances’.

Ensuring they provide:

A variety of accommodation to meet individual needs.
A comprehensive range of excellent services.
Innovative approaches to employment and using resources to meet a wide range of needs.
A wide range of purposeful, cultural, physical and spiritual activities.

Moon Executive Search will play a key role in assisting Lilian Faithfull Care in this search campaign, utilising their extensive networks and search methodologies.

This campaign is now closed, contact us to hear about similar opportunities.
